November 12, 2022If you are coming to El Salvador and you are looking for a reliable and passionate tour provider, look no further!
We had the pleasure of going on the... read more Ruta de Las Flores tour with Osmaro in late October 2022 and we could not have asked for a better experienced and knowledgeable guide.
So often when you're traveling, guided tours can be very robotic and passionless.
We loved everything about the day and the insight that Osmaro gave us. He definitely went the extra mile to ensure that we saw an authentic side of El Salvador.
A 100% trustable, dependable company that we felt provided extremely good value. Thank youKasia B

Very professional & knowledgeable, yet super friendly & considerate. Would absolutely recommend this tour & Eco Tours Petate.

Our tour guide Osmaro was so well educated on the land and history of... read more the country. He was also so personable and friendly. Many stops were made for pictures. We had lunch at a local spot on the lake. Overall wonderful and unforgettable experience. Felt very safe beginning to end.

October 13, 2022Memorable day trip around El Salvador; Osmaro was first-class guide - Our day trip comprised Cerro Verde, Tazumal, Joya de Ceren and Suchitoto. This tailored itinerary involves lots of driving and took us 12 hours. Osmaro was the only tour operator... read more in San Salvador willing to do such a long driving trip and this positive, can-do attitude was obvious throughout the day. Osmaro has an encyclopedic knowledge of El Salvador politics, history and nature and this kept us entertained at all times. Even when we were returning to San Salvador at night, Osmaro was still full of energy and pointing out interesting sights to us. Since we only had a few days in El Salvador on a stopover to San Francisco, this tour gave us an excellent insight into the country's natural beauty, its Mayan historical sites, and colonial architecture in Suchitoto. We found El Salvador to be very safe since the government has done an excellent job in recent months in stopping gang violence. Don't hesitate to book a flight here and when you arrive I strongly recommend you book a tour with Osmaro & Eco Tours Petate.
